WWAF, which was founded in 2009, is the creation of visual artist, Fabian Williams, and was inspired by many different things, specifically the colorful personalities of wrestling. “WWAF is a place where local artists can exhibit their alter ego as well as their artistic abilities in an environment that embraces individuality”, said Williams. He created an “Art Battle,” which is a competitive performance art series that depicts the satirical gestures of today’s society. Artist must talk trash, paint, and talk more trash.
